Onyx Wonder is one of the darker and more powerful compositions from The Fragrance. While grapefruit and lemon introduce a citrusy facet, they stand in clear contrast to the significantly heavier elements of the scent. Gourmand-like notes additionally provide a certain warmth.
At its heart are saffron, cumin, and leather. The spices give Onyx Wonder a dry, striking character, while leather leaves a distinct mark on the composition.
Cedar, patchouli, vetiver, and oud form a powerful woody foundation. The combination of leather, oud, and saffron, in particular, contributes to the dark and intense effect. Thus, Onyx Wonder is not one of those pleasant, soft woody compositions, but rather displays the more tart and expressive side of this fragrance family.
The blend of spice, leather, and dry woods gives the fragrance a particularly strong character. The few fresher elements create contrast, but do not alter its clearly dark and woody orientation.
